Theresa May Is Now Nearly As Unpopular As Jeremy Corbyn Was Before The Election

Right now though, every day some new stat emerges that spells out disaster for her and the latest polls are revealing that she’s now almost as unpopular amongst the nation as Jeremy Corbyn was before the election campaign began. The graph you can see below was compiled by YouGov and reveals that Corbyn’s popularity has risen from -42 to 0 in the past twelve months whereas May’s has fallen from +10 to -34.

The approval rating of the Labour Party has also risen from -25 to +6 and the Conservative Party has stayed roughly the same at -20. Normally Theresa May’s lack of a majority would lead to a call for a second general election by her Tory rivals, but this new data will probably deter them as it could mean that Corbyn and Labour could actually win any upcoming election.
